"Retired Agent and author Jack Allen Powell has seen hundreds of illegal distilleries and helped to destroy them and thousands of gallons of untaxed whiskey. A Dying Art III, unlike A Dying Art II, doesn't depict the exact history of moonshining. It does reveal those who lost their lives trying to stamp out moonshining, bootlegging and whiskey running. These true stories are a Revenuer's Memories of Yesteryear's Moonshiners' history with a twist that contains some compassion and humor. It doesn't mean this is the end of moonshining by any means, because someone out there will try to outwit the law." - exerpt from the book cover
